OhioHealth Interview Questions
& Process

I applied for an Admin Assistant job at OhioHealth and a recruiter called me the next day. We scheduled a phone screening within a week, which was the only fast part. But the recruiter didn't know much about the job, just the department, saying they didn't get details from OhioHealth. They said they'd follow up with more info, but never did. The job posting was also really vague, just generic admin tasks, no specifics on what the role would do or who it supported. In the interviews, the hiring team also had trouble explaining the duties, just vaguely mentioning purchase orders, managing calendars, making PowerPoints, and drafting documents. They didn't give much info about the day-to-day. Since it was a new role, they said there'd be flexibility, but there was no real plan or clear explanation. When I asked for more details, they were vague or ignored the questions. Communication was bad and slow. It took weeks between interviews, making the whole thing over two months, which is way too long for an entry-level job. After the last interview, I heard nothing. Almost three weeks later, I saw on Workday that I didn't get it, with no email or update from OhioHealth. It seems like this is common, as others have said they were ghosted after interviews. The whole process felt messy, unclear, and like they didn't care about our time. If you're looking at non-clinical jobs at OhioHealth, expect a long, annoying process with poor communication and unclear job roles.

The interview process was pretty smooth. I was in touch with a recruiter for about 8 months, and she was really helpful and responsive, setting up multiple interviews for me. The actual interviews went well, starting with a virtual one on Teams and then moving to an in-person interview and site visit. The whole thing took about a month to a month and a half.

The process to set up an interview was unnecessarily long. The HR rep started two different email threads to ask for availability, and in between those, a no-reply email stated they were proceeding with other candidates despite ongoing availability discussions. The first scheduled interview time passed without the HR rep calling; they only contacted me after I followed up, claiming the call didn't go through, and then we rescheduled. The actual interview was okay, but the HR rep's room was echoey and they seemed uninformed about the role, unable to confirm if professional development programs exist. Regarding compensation, the rep mentioned it's equity-based without providing a starting figure. They also indicated multiple interview rounds would follow if the process continued, which felt excessive. Ultimately, the numerous red flags made the final rejection email a relief. The company did not seem organized or efficient.

I applied for many PCA jobs and never heard back after interviewing. I had one in-person interview, two webcam interviews, and several phone screenings, but still no response. I was offered a unit clerk position once, but I declined because I'm a student and don't have the time. I followed up by calling, but they never got back to me. I even got to know an HR person who promised to help me find a job and would say she'd reply by a certain time, but she never did. I'm getting really frustrated because I've been trying to get a job here for over a year, and the hiring process has been really hard for me.
